A white brooch shaped like the moon sits on my left shoulder, a white brooch shaped like the sun on the other shoulder, white ankle high boots, and a purple scarf in my hair, standing in front of a cream and blue checkered wall.

Like so many years before, spring Dapper Day fell on my birthday weekend, but it meant I got to see a lot of my friends, some of whom even through me surprise party in their hotel room! If you’ve been reading the blog for awhile, then you’re familiar with Dapper Day, but if you’re new,…

A Groovy 66th Birthday for Disneyland

July 21, 2021, 4 Comments

Last weekend Disneyland celebrated its 66th anniversary. We visited the park with a few friends, and I used the occasion to make another vintage Disneyland ephemera inspired outfit. I’m a sucker for vintage ephemera, especially Disneyland related ephemera. Disneyland created some great paper shopping bags over the decades, and awhile back I purchased one on…

Sleeping Beauty's Castle, straight on. The walls have a pink tint to them, and greyish blue roofs. People mingle in front.

Today is the final installment of my vintage Disneyland postcard series, and with it, I saved the most iconic land for last, Fantasyland.

Over the weekend Patrick and I went to another one of Charles Phoenix‘s shows, and this one about our still-new-to-us home, Anaheim. Okay, well, we really live in Orange, but Anaheim is right next door, and I work in Anaheim! Phoenix’s presentation was at Anaheim High School, which is a beyond gorgeous 1930s school, built during…

Oh, here we are with another Disney related post! I have apartment shooting slated for this week, however next week is creeping up on me faster than I thought!

This weekend was the third, and final, Antique Expo of the year… Dealers are trying to hustle their Halloween decorations just days before the holiday, and kitschy ceramic Santa Clauses are at every turn. While the show didn’t expand my wardrobe (and this time I’m quite thankful) it was still a lot of fun and…

Hello it’s Patrick here to do another post with some new 120 photographs from our last trip to Disneyland. Unlike last time, where Janey was just too depressed to write about it, I’m here to explain some of the more technical side to shooting 120 film. When I first met Janey she was astounded that…

Recently I was granted permission from my dad to begin scanning our family’s large slide collection. The first carousel I took back to Portland with me was one marked “Disneyland ’79 & ’81”. How could I resist? Also, we are going to Disneyland in a month! So I’m getting pretty excited! While I don’t think…
